Re: Benjamin T. Adair

The Benjamin Adair you mention is Benjamin T. Adair.On the marriage bond between Richard Adair's daughter, Jane, and Joseph Ershom in New Castle, Delaware; it states that since Richard was to sick to ride a horse to pay the marriage bond, he sent his nephew, Benjamin T. Adair.This imply's that your Benjamin Adair is the son of one of the brothers of Richard Adair of New Castle, DE.This family later migrated to Bourbon and Nicholas County, Kentucky and later to Adams County, Illinois.
